These three nutritious smoothie recipes are all made with delicious milk and taste great. They make for a perfect breakfast before school.

In some of my previous posts I have mentioned that I grew up on my grandparents ranch in Mexico. I loved growing up there because there was always so much to do – from picking mangoes and avocados, to riding horses, and even to milking cows. My grandpa had so many different animals – cows, chickens, pigs, goats, and more.

As a result, there was never any shortage of fresh eggs, meat, and best of all milk. I grew up drinking milk every day and I still love it today. Milk is one of the original farm-to-table products. Growing up in Mexico it went from farm to table very quickly since we lived on the farm – but even now living in a big city, milk usually goes from the farm to grocery store within 48 hours.

I am also trying to teach my little boys to love milk as much as I do. My two oldest boys ask for milk all the time, and I feel confident giving it to them. I know that it is a great way to give them the nutrition that they need. They are happy to just drink it plain, but I also try to switch it up sometimes by giving them some delicious smoothies in the morning before school.

I love coming up with new smoothie varieties for my family to try. I try to include fruit, some type of seeds, and of course fresh, delicious milk. Today, I want to share with you all three different smoothies that my boys love and that I am sure you will too. You can always customize these based on your personal tastes, but these combinations have been a hit at my house.
